60 ml Thick cream

Sweat the onion with the butter in a saucepan without
colouring, until soft. Add the broad beans, together
with the water and bring to the boil. Add whichever
herb you have chosen, chopped fine (I recommend the
use of savory), season with salt, sugar and pepper.
When the beans are cooked, take out a tablespoonful or

Reheat to simmering point, stir in the cream, correct
the seasoning and add the reserved beans.
